We de net Lave much sympathy with the project te trade the Democratic vote for senator en a Republican agreement te make a fair apportionment The trade would be legitimate enough ; as it is of no particular interest te the Demo cratic party that one Republican rather than another should be senator, and the concession te them of a fair apportion ment is what should be given them with out any consideration being paid for it. The Democrats want an apportionment that shall net de them injustice ; the Re publicans want a senator, which their majority entitles them te. There is no injury done the state by the Democrats voting for a competent senator and the Republicans voting for a decent appor tionment. That is the argument for the trade.
